Meeting for the Ride By May, we’d finally found a day when the weather was reasonable and I didn’t have too many commitments (except for a Planning & Zoning Commission meeting later that evening). Anyway, the day was May 9, 2013, and it was overcast and cool but still looked to be a good riding day. Since Gary is a safe rider, he brought a buddy along. That’s how I met Lewis Davis, Jr. of WV-I, otherwise known as Junior. Since he’s been riding this route for decades, Junior was the lead trike. And it was great, with the intercom system, to hear Junior tell us about the hotels and motels and restaurants that used to be located at various places along the ride. I was also able to photograph him during the trip.
Junior, on the red trike, and Gary, on the white one, leaving my place, the Gillum House Bed & Breakfast, at the end of the day.
